Default 2017 Ftype R

Hi guys, my name is Colin, I live in Ashburton. NZ . I recently purchased a 2017 Ftype R face-lift model all wheel drive. I'm totally in love with my ride, but I keep getting warnings, first was only about tyre pressure so was all gd, but now I have another, at the moment I've forgotten the warning, but my main question is, has anyone bought , or knows of a good diagnostic tool for the F type R. Oh BTW, the car was imported from the UK and didn't come with an owners manual, nothing. Of course, I'll check ebay or the like. But I may be better with a diagnostic tool to save trips and cash.
thanks for any help

Welcome to the forums Colin,

Modern Jaguars are very sensitive to battery condition and state of charge. A partially discharged battery can cause all kinds of weird warnings and most of us use a CTEK battery maintainer.

Jaguar OnLine Handbooks can be found here:
https://www.ownerinfo.jaguar.com/

Follow this link https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/f-type-x152-72/ to the F-Type forum for help, advice and information. You can also use the New Zealand Region forum by following this link https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/new-zealand-97/ to find other members in your region.

Please read the guidance for new members ( https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/n...ned-up-241802/ ) which answers many of the most frequent questions about getting started.

Enjoy the forums.

Graham
